пока что моя самая любимая история. пробила на слёзы сильнее, чем всё остальное в сериале на данный момент( до последнего надеялась, что всё в порядке с Кевином, но видимо его истории всё-таки были такими не просто так, интересно!

The woman from the forest, of course, is very muddy.

@Hannah_Abbot: she clearly pursues her goals, and tells Ilonka what she wants to hear so that she can help her

Well, it all started with Natsuki and she, as expected, gave out the strongest story. Considering that I suspect that it will be in the final two purely by the way Flanagan usually builds a composition and by the names and by the finale of this one - it will not be better.
Surprisingly, it is so honest and piercing that it does not spoil either the morality, or the gg at the end knocking down the mood, or even the cowardly inscription in the credits.
It's funny, somehow I almost accidentally figured it out right away, because she didn't open the gate at the beginning. But I would have figured it out a little later, because damn. How accurate is this description of the experience. Very easy to identify.

Oh, and yes, the couple from the House on the Hill are cool and I was glad to see them too.

I haven't read the book, but it seems to me that the owner of the hospice is the daughter of that sectarian, and the aunt from the forest is the surviving girl who needs a new portion of strength.. but this is not accurate..

The story is gorgeous 5+

Well, Ilonka and a risky girl, go to the basement alone at night when strange sounds are heard there.

of all the stories told, this one was the most powerful
really

Ilonka sees so much of all kinds of turbidity, and continues to go down into the dark basement herself /
well, like how brave are all these people in the movies

yes! I knew there was a connection between Kevin and the old woman

When the girl said "turn off the engine" for the first time, she immediately understood what was going on, well, of course the story is up to goosebumps🫣

Oh, my God... The ending made me jump... No, I really hope that the old woman is not Kevin's alter ego. And who was cured?

Natsuki's story is very imaginative and at the same time accurate. This story, in my opinion, is the coolest moment of the series so far

Unfortunately, the series is getting sadder and sadder. Only history and cliffhanger are normal here. The rest is a long chatter that no longer causes any emotions.
I don't believe the characters are talking to each other. I see the screenwriter(s) who broadcast their correct thoughts to the audience. You might as well read the scientific literature on psychology or something else. But I'm watching an artwork... I don't want morals hammered into my head. I'm waiting for an interesting story first.

the stories are great, but I don't like the presentation and the course of events. it's too boring, I would like to feel the atmosphere of what is happening more.

@Marharet: in three: "House", "Bly", "Mass". He will also play in the new "Fall of the House of Usher". And he also played in Flanagan's films ("Doctor Sleep", "Ouija", "Gerald's Game").

the story was great, but I have a feeling that I have already seen something like this, right now it seems that this has already happened somewhere, but I can't remember where

@lpoluo: there are a lot of places, it's just a cliched cliche when the soul goes on an endless road. well, or in his mind, a person cannot stop or get to the right point. I bought this turn almost immediately, but I thought it was too clumsy to insert such a thing. but alas =(

The story was reminiscent of the 2003 film "Dead End" with Ray Wise, the father of Lara Palmer. There, the family also got caught in a loop on a foggy highway. Every appearance of actors from Flanagan's past projects is like a balm for the soul. Henry Thomas is a charismatic guy.

Natsuki's story is very interesting and one of the best. There were some guesses, but only by the end of the story did I begin to realize that Teresa had died. It's a pity Natsuki, after she almost died and wanted to live, she found out that she was going to die.
The woman from the forest is too muddy and it is unclear what goals she pursues and what she needs from this hospice.

I want to be fearless like Ilonka, so that at night I can go down to the basement with a strange elevator, where the hell is that

Почему-то в истории прямо ждал, что девушка окажется демоном, а мужчина ангелом и что из машины выходить реально опасно, а то потеряешься как тот парень, что бродил вокруг

Как, все-таки, точно сказано о том, что депрессия - это когда твой ум пытается убить сам себя. И это, если честно, непрекращающийся кромешный ад и пиздец. История разрыв сердечка 💔 особенно, когда сам это переживаешь изо дня в день... сидишь в этой машине и задыхаешься, задыхаешься, и с каждым разом все сложнее вылезти из этой чёртовой машины...

Концовка просто суппер. Впервые действительно хочется побыстрее посмотреть следующую серию. Понравилось, что не сразу сказали, что выздоравливает (не думаю, что это гг, было бы слишком легко для сюжета).
Очень важную тему подняли. Как человек, который в одиночку пытается бороться с депрессией уже 8 лет, рада, что об этом говорят. Но сама история Нацуки показалась слишком нудно/долгой, может из-за того, что такой сюжет мы уже видели много-много раз (ИМХО).
Что интересно, уже 8 серия, но совершенно нет ощущения, что всё движется к концу

And the twinkling lights of the garland are some kind of reference to the OSD?
